Parallels Storage (Pstorage) is a highly-available distributed storage (virtual SAN) with built-in replication and disaster recovery. Pstorage provides a storage virtualization platform on top of commodity hardware with locally attached hard drives and enables the unification of storage into a cluster in scenarios like virtualization with the help of virtual machines (VMs) and/or Containers (CTs). Pstorage ensures a fast live migration of VMs and CTs across hardware nodes, without the need to copy VM/CT data, and high availability as the storage becomes available remotely.
The main Pstorage features are listed below:
* High performance - comparable to SAN.
See a brief video on YouTube [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oEzW9w-1rg]. <span style="color:#FF0000">Parallels Cloud Storage is available as a TECHNOLOGY PREVIEW ONLY for OpenVZ users and can't be licensed for production. <br>To unlock for running in production you should upgrade to a full Parallels Cloud Server product (see below). <br> Available free capacity for in technology preview mode is 100GB of logical (Containers usable) disk space. <br> After hitting this limit writers can get blocked w/o errors expecting for a limit to be extended, so please avoid hitting the limit.</span>
